Follow these instructions to change your UHP modem to Bridged Mode and disable DHCP/NAT/PPPoE.

Requirements

When the built-in PPPoE is disabled in the UHP, you will require a PPPoE client on the host computer unless you are using EarthLink Home Networking. PPPoE clients for Windows or Mac may be obtained by clicking here. When using Home Networking, PPPoE will be the responsibility of the Linksys router that sits between your computer and the UHP modem.

Changing a UHP Modem from PPPoE Mode to Bridged Mode

In the Address or URL field of your browser, type http://172.16.0.254/config.
Press the Enter key on your keyboard.
Click the Disable radio button in the DHCP/NAT/PPPoE Mode (UHP Mode) area.
Click the Submit button.
The UHP will now restart. Wait 60 seconds and then close the browser window.
